1. How did you first become interested in radio?
Picture this, it's Bremerton, WA the fall of 1999, I'm reading the Bremerton Sun newspaper, and in the classifieds section, there's an ad for a board op at the local AM radio station - KITZ AM 1400. I knew nothing about the station except that it broadcasted out of the South Kitsap Mall, so I decided to apply… and they hired me on the spot (unpaid of course). Plot twist - it's a conservative talk radio station - and I'm not conservative; there was no window (just open space where the window should have been) between the control room and on-air studio. Despite hating every second of every show I worked on, I somehow fell in love with the art of radio and soon after went to Green River Community College to pursue a degree in Broadcasting.
